Listener comments!
	3:01pm karen eliot: thank you everyone!
	3:01pm Anonymous Coward: A beautiful day to Boom-Boom
	3:01pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon, Sheila and all!
	3:02pm Rob Kopp: Hi Sheila, hi all. Couldn't listen last week before Saturday. The pronouncation of Eefje's Platenmaatschappij wasn't too bad! Platen = records, maatschappij = company and we put "tje" to something when it's small. So it means Eefjes small record company.
	3:02pm TehBadDr: Hello Sheila and fellow Boom Boomers!
	3:03pm Adrian in London: Hello lovely Sheila! The Contessa and I are on our way home from an early-evening apéritif and will be listening in high fidelity in about 20 minutes!
	3:03pm Michael 98145: ( too cute - www.instagram.com... :)
	3:05pm djsheilab: Good afternoon to you all! It is a beautiful day to Boom Boom! @Anonymous Coward
	3:05pm Rob Kopp: BTW: Eefje de Visser was at my wedding party in 2005. At that time she dated a good friend of my bonus son.
	3:07pm TehBadDr: Lovely dreamy start you have going there Sheila!
	3:09pm P-90: Greetings @Sheila B !
	3:09pm djsheilab: @TehBadDr Thanks! @P-90 Greetings!
	3:09pm Adrian in London: adds Steady Holiday to increasingly mammoth Spotify library
	3:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ahoy there, Admiral Sheila! Steady as she booms!
	3:10pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp Very cool about Eefje. My cousin introduced me to her. She's fantastic!
	3:10pm Sem Chumbo: Hello, djsheilab, and Boom Boom Roomers.
	3:11pm listener james from westwood: This Steady Holiday has a very pleasant hint of Alan Parsons Project to it.
	3:12pm Blues Mandinga: Hey!
	3:13pm Cecile: Do you have some Shirley Bassey floating around?
	3:14pm Listening Out There: I think "Hey There Lonely Boy" was one of those "answer songs," written as a reversal of sorts on "Hey There Lonely Girl"...wasn't it?
	3:15pm Cecile: It just seemed like the lyrical gender was changed, but I dunno.
	3:16pm Rob Kopp: A couple of years ago Eefje did a nice but short cover of Blondie's Call me in TV-program De Wereld Draait Door (The world keeps on turning): www.youtube.com...
	3:16pm djsheilab: @Listening Out There Ruby & the Romantics actually did the original, but Eddie Holman's version was a much bigger hit. And you've picked up on the theme of my next segment!
	3:16pm fred: Good afternoon Sheila and sophisticated listeners
	3:16pm listener james from westwood: This _is_ a nice track.
	3:16pm djsheilab: @Cecile No Shirley Bassey in my stash today.
	3:16pm Cecile: Wow, Geowulf could use a graphic designer.
	3:17pm -Ken: Hi everybody
	3:17pm Cecile: I love Eddie Holman's version. Those high notes kills me. And hi, Fred! S'cool Sheila!
	3:17pm djsheilab: Hi @Ken!
	3:17pm Listening Out There: Thank you, Sheila! Am enjoying the show thus far. Whoops, then Station Manager Ken showed up....
	3:18pm Cecile: Hi, Ken. Thank you for bringing Diane back.
	3:18pm Listening Out There: [...straightening out tie...]
	3:19pm Michael 98145: [ tucking in shirt ]
	3:20pm Cecile: [putting hand with middle finger behind back]
	3:20pm djsheilab: Yes! Everyone! Straighten up! Must be on your best behavior round these parts!
	3:22pm Michael 98145: oh my, this -
	3:23pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Good afternoon [waves hands, no offensive gestures visible]
	3:23pm Summer and Michael: Love this classic version by The Flamingos. Sigh. Thank you, lovely Sheila!
	3:24pm P-90: Maybe the number one Doo Wop record of all time. Brilliant production and arrangement.
	3:24pm djsheilab: @Summer and Michael + @P-90 Just perfection, right?! Hello @Cliff!
	3:24pm Cecile: I love doo-wop. Been listening to it as a kid in the 70s. Which made me very popular. :/
	3:25pm Cecile: P-90 - this or the Great Pretender.
	3:25pm Michael 98145: like the doggy label - img.discogs.com...
	3:25pm Rob Kopp: Originally from '34 (Dick Powell in musical Dames)
	3:26pm Cecile: It's interesting, though, that friends of mine from the East Coast cannot abide by doo-wop. They heard way too much of it. That's me with a lot of country and folk-rock music. Heard too much of it.
	3:27pm Faye: GREETINGS FROM STOCKHOLM IT'S 10:30PM
	3:27pm Anonymous Coward: The new Imelda album..
	3:27pm djsheilab: Jeff Beck on guitar.
	3:28pm Lixiviated Life: "My country, tears of thee, sweet land of liberty." - LF
	3:28pm djsheilab: Hey @Faye! Have seen your beautiful photos. Looks like you're having a great trip.
	3:28pm Anonymous Coward: Nice
	3:28pm Cecile: lucky you! can you stalk Robyn for me?
	3:28pm Rob Kopp: I only know Imelda May from the rockabilly song Johnny got a boom boom, so this is a pleasant surprise
	3:29pm listener james from westwood: Holy Christmas, what a song!
	3:30pm Cecile: that sucks. I had a few weeks of nastiness myself.
	3:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Faye. Is it sunset there yet? www.timeanddate.com...
	3:31pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: I love doo-wop too, my parents always had the radio tuned to WHEN when I was growing up
	3:31pm Michael 98145: yes, i only saw Imelda during her rockabilly phase
	3:32pm Michael 98145: oh, our DJ needs some hot tea
	3:32pm Cecile: Wheel of Fortune by the Cardinals is pretty amazing. Stay by the Zodiacs. Smoke gets in your eyes - The Platters
	3:32pm Cecile: Are they paying Clay? I only ask because he's doing 16 hours of radio.
	3:33pm Rob Kopp: Nolan Strong & The Diablos: The wind
	3:33pm Michael 98145: glad to see Diane returning
	3:33pm doctorjazz: My understanding was that the morning slot was a paid gig; JM in the AM had been paid.
	3:33pm Dean: Ruben & the Jets, "Fountain of Love," or anything else on "Cruisin' with..." [Only half kidding.]
	3:34pm Cecile: September Song - the Ravens
	3:34pm JtotheK: hi sheila, hi boom boomers.
	3:34pm Cecile: Guided Missiles - the Cuff Links
	3:35pm Adrian in London: [Back home] The Geowulf record cover looks like a 1970s knitting pattern cover or something
	3:36pm Cecile: Exactly, Adrian! It doesn't even look as good as a private press record in the Goodwill!
	3:36pm The Contessa: Hello Sheila! Hello everyone. @Ken FHP, don't faint, it's balmy in London!
	3:37pm Cecile: The "5" Royales - Dedicated to the One I love
	3:37pm Mark in Toronto: Sheila, how about "Lloyd, I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken" by Camera Obscura for Lloyd Cole & the Commotion "Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken"
	3:38pm JtotheK: i have not performed internet research to confirm ... but i wonder if Mary Wells 'You Beat Me to the Punch' and Gene Chandler 'You Threw A Lucky Punch' are somehow talking to each other. (the songs sounding identical tells me "probably".)
	3:39pm Rob Kopp: There's another one: Ginger Davis & Snaps: I'm no run around
	3:39pm foofs: I thought it was gonna be Runaround Stu.
	3:40pm frozen_peas: hahaha!
	3:40pm Faye: thanks for keeping me company this evening! traveling can be lonely. great to hear your voice <3
	3:40pm P-90: Answerpalooza!
	3:40pm JtotheK: another good one -- Ann Mason with Little Mac & The Boss Sounds - 'You Can't Love Me In the Midnight Hour'.
	3:41pm Rob Kopp: and here's another one, too! Jo Ann Campbell: I changed my mind Jack
	3:42pm fred: You can't go wrong with Nina
	3:42pm Michael 98145: fun set
	3:42pm Cecile: Of course all the "Annie" songs from Hank Ballard and others.
	3:43pm Cooh John: Sorry I'm late for the first boom. Hello djsheilab and fellow sophisticates. Listened to a WFMU archived show. I need more ears and hours.
	3:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: @TheContessa - Lucky you! The sun might come out here this weekend and it might hit 68F/20C.
	3:44pm Michael 98145: K-Tel !
	3:46pm Cecile: Wasn't Exile in Guyville a song by song rebuttal to Exile on Main Street?
	3:46pm b: This set is delightful!
	3:46pm Rob Kopp: I have to go to the neighbours to have a drink :-( Don't know when I'm back.
	3:47pm Cecile: Can you commandeer the computer, Rob?
	3:48pm Mark in Toronto: Tobakky and Sedaky was purtty funny
	3:48pm TehBadDr: Say where did I put that jar of greasy kid stuff for my hair?
	3:48pm Stanley: I see what you're doing
	3:48pm Cooh John: Hi Faye. Just listening to your last show.
	3:48pm frozen_peas: For anyone who doesn't remember this fabulous post: blog.wfmu.org...
	3:49pm Cecile: Sweet Home Alabama was an answer song to Southern Man.
	3:51pm Will from Seattle: Becky was playing some pretty sweet answer songs on her show earlier this week
	3:51pm mr_mikeK: Response set is so cool. Never heard the songs but I know what they're talking about. Smiles all around!
	3:53pm Anonymous Coward: Poor Sloopy, one of the RnR Damsels in Distress
	3:54pm Cecile: Oh! The Belles and the Pandoras - Melvin, the answer song to Gloria
	3:55pm Will from Seattle: @Cecile That one's great!
	3:56pm jnybgood: This set is really funny!
	3:56pm mr_mikeK: @frozen blog says "shameless". But I think these responses are done well
	4:00pm Cecile: hey, they're trying to break the cycle of abuse. It takes time!
	4:00pm GeorgeSimian: Awesome set. I like the Henry Phillips song, He's Talking Again, which was answered with She's Talking Again by someone. Both great!
	4:01pm Cecile: OH REALLY. She has a couple of good songs.
	4:01pm Cecile: Bang Bang is a good jam.
	4:01pm Cecile: YES
	4:03pm Cecile: If I could request Bang Bang, as it is a good jam.
	4:03pm Adrian in London: @Sheila Yes, yes, yes, to all that. I found myself facing bemused expressions at work today when I was raving about how great the new Selina Gomez track is. It's seriously good.
	4:03pm Dean: "Bang Bang" rocks, absolutely. My 11YO son is a fan of AG's. He mentioned yesterday that he'd heard she "took blame" for the tragedy.
	4:04pm Cecile: Dean, I saw some drag queens do it as the Powerpuff Girls. It was amazing. The best drag queen I know wants to be the sixth Spice Girl.
	4:04pm Dean: And "Bang Bang" includes Jessie J and Nicki Minaj. Solid tune.
	4:05pm frozen_peas: People are always gonna spout their opinions. You'd think they could set it aside for a minute in the wake of a tragedy, but alas. Tact is a rare virtue.
	4:05pm Cecile: Exactly. And the video is a great "assemble the troops" joint.
	4:05pm Dean: Ha! To heck with the fifth Beatle!
	4:06pm Dean: I am hella over twenty, but with young kids, so it averages out.
	4:06pm Cecile: I know! She even has a sequined union jack dress.
	4:06pm Cecile: I have a mental age of 11.
	4:06pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Ariana Grande is A-OK
	4:07pm Dean: Yeah, well, I have an emotional age of 3, so there!
	4:07pm Cecile: hahahaha
	4:07pm Itzall Ablurr: Already those "men" badgering Ariana Grande are making my want to vomit
	4:08pm Cecile: young gay men use the unicorn emoji all the time.
	4:08pm Cecile: I count them as guys.
	4:08pm northguineahills: I refuse to update my phone, but I do I want the unicorn emoji! (I have to get creative w/ the limited amount of emojis in my library).
	4:10pm northguineahills: Reading my parents' facebook feeds, their complaint is that Ariana Gande isn't patriotic enough (apparently they didn't take a shine to her Trump protests). I really don't understand, but I stopped trying 20 years ago.
	4:11pm Cecile: As a teen I was more into guys that dressed like girls than girl idols. I don't know what that says about me. Although I am a huge huge Patti Smith fan. I guess I'm more teenybop now.
	4:11pm Cecile: As all my Conchita Wurst fanart will attest.
	4:12pm Cecile: I have tons of Skyhooks fanart somewhere in my messy house.
	4:12pm Leonardo: You're so good you should have your own radio show Shelia.
	4:13pm Dean: My reflections on my youth are necessarily distorted by time, but I don't think I ever even thought about "dressing like" as an activity in which one engaged, except c.1968, when I was determined to look like Peter Fonda in "Easy Rider." Certainly never thought of dressing like Skyhooks, but sure was impressed by the way they dressed!
	4:13pm Cecile: I dig this. Spanish pop D&B!
	4:14pm Dean: Er, no, it was Billy, the Dennis Hopper character with the fringe.
	4:14pm Cecile: I never did either, but I probably can still draw all of them and most of their costumes! Maybe not well...
	4:14pm fred: @NGH: Damn autocorrect, maybe they meat to type patriarchic?
	4:14pm Anonymous Coward: Kewl
	4:15pm Cecile: YES
	4:15pm Anonymous Coward: Classic
	4:15pm east hollywood: Thanks for the lecture with audio exhibits! I learn from your show.
	4:16pm The Contessa: Ah, Dusty, Dusty, Dusty
	4:17pm Cecile: This is just a Rod McKuen translation of a Jacques Brel song. That's why it is good.
	4:20pm slugluv1313: @ Cecile - Patti Smith is who did it for me when i was a teenager! before her, i just could not "relate" to most female (or even male!) pop stars! although, i can totally understand Ariana Grande' s appeal - the girl can sing (& i do believe that she is vegan too)
	4:21pm Cecile: I related more to males, but most of all to Patti. It was that mix of masculine/feminine I guess.
	4:23pm Cecile: what a wonderful cover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	4:23pm will: Love this song
	4:23pm jnybgood: Agreed!
	4:23pm northguineahills: I didn't listen to music until I was 16. Beforehand, the radio was just background ambiance...
	4:23pm Dean: It appears Irene Trudel is the only regular spinner of Badi Assad tunes at the station. Would fit in nice here, too. https://www.discogs.com/Badi-Assad-Solo/release/1235512 ...among others.
	4:25pm djsheilab: @Dean I've never heard of her. Will give a listen. Thanks!
	4:26pm Dean: Sister of the more well-known Assad Bros. You're in for a treat. Or several.
	4:27pm Carmichael: Okee dokee, back from my luncheon and ready to have some serious fun!
	4:28pm the garden: Ok, this show is freaking amazing, Thank you for playing music by people other than men. The music industry is SO sexist. The engineers at studios treat ladies with such disrespect.
	4:32pm JtotheK: that minits 45 was terrific, hadn't heard it before.
	4:34pm TehBadDr: Do-wop saturation.
	4:34pm steve: im terrified of waiters and waitresses singing happy birthday
	4:40pm brus: "eget selskap" means : own company
	4:41pm Bronwyn Bishop: hey sheila and everyone!
	4:41pm djsheilab: @brus Thank you! So I guess "self-released" would make sense.
	4:41pm WO Town Wick: Please no Michael McDonald ever!
	4:41pm brus: yes
	4:43pm Adrian in London: @Bronwyn Bishop hey Bronwyn
	4:43pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, good Eurythmics cut!
	4:44pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Heeeeere comes the raaaain agaaaaain
	4:44pm Cooh John: Hey, it just started to rain here.
	4:44pm Anonymous Coward: Annie - what a voice
	4:44pm JtotheK: @LJFW - seconded, this eurythmics track jams!!!
	4:45pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London + @The Contessa + @Cool John + @Bronwyn B + @Listener James + @JtotheK + EVERYONE CHIMING IN HERE... Thanks for being here with me today!!
	4:45pm P-90: This one always beams me straight back to the mid-eighties.
	4:46pm Bronwyn Bishop: hey adrian, how are things in london?
	4:46pm Anonymous Coward: There' a possible set/show - nothing but altos
	4:46pm Carmichael: Pat Byrne played the hell out of The Minits last week.
	4:46pm Adrian in London: @Sheila xx
	4:47pm The Contessa: Thanks to you @Sheila, and… I'll stand up for Michael McDonald too
	4:47pm Adrian in London: @Bronwyn Things are balmy, Bronwyn, balmy. Although, apparently, on Sunday, it will be a case of Here Comes the Rain Again…
	4:48pm fred: Juliana Hatfield!
	4:49pm listener james from westwood: Oh, that scamp Hatfield!
	4:49pm djsheilab: Oops....I just deleted a non-curse.
	4:49pm Michael 98145: her voice brings back memories ..
	4:49pm northguineahills: It's rare to hear Juliana Hatfield outside of Irwin.
	4:50pm Adrian in London: Remember when Juliana was on, uh, kinda, My So Called Life?
	4:50pm djsheilab: @northguineahills She was a big childhood hero.
	4:51pm Faye: YAA JULIANA!
	4:51pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London Haha! Yup.
	4:51pm anaonnenmousevowhard: Remember when Juliana was on Pete & Pete?
	4:51pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Juliana Hatfield sigh
	4:52pm fred: I only saw her once, 3 years ago, and that was a Minor Alps gig
	4:53pm Cecile: Deborah Iyall - talk about a woman who got raked over by the music industry.
	4:53pm djsheilab: @Faye Next song is for you!
	4:53pm Adrian in London: @sheila That was the episode where Claire Danes's mum realised she was talking to a ghost and the punchline was "How did you DIE??" !!
	4:55pm Michael 98145: i think Claire Danes continues to do herself proud
	4:56pm Faye: !!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! omg 2nd time ive cried during this show lol
	4:57pm Michael 98145: never heard this before; thank you
	4:57pm Gaylord Fields: Sheila! You read my mind! I was thinking of this exact Virna Lindt song with regard to Faye!
	4:57pm djsheilab: @Faye Awwww...that's so touching!
	4:58pm Julie: I love Virna
	4:58pm northguineahills: @anaonnenmousevowhard: I remember that episode! My HS years listening to Juliana. Even the stuff w/ Evan Dando!
	5:00pm djsheilab: @Gaylord Fields You know what they say!
	5:00pm Faye: aww hej Gaylord!
	5:01pm blee: Broadcast! Yes, please.
	5:02pm Gaylord Fields: Hej hej, Faye! You're such a big softie! I have a feeling that SBB is a perfect Stockholm Friday night soundtrack.
	5:02pm Carmichael: I have an Evan Dando/Syd Straw cover of a Richard Thompson song. Pretty cool still ...
	5:03pm Gaylord Fields: And I love love love that Romeo Void song!
	5:04pm Faye: SBB on a Stockholm night could not be more perfect! this playlist is flawless!
	5:05pm future transport: b0o0o0oo0mb0o0o0o0omb0o0oo0o0m
	5:05pm iambasil: Hey Sheila hi everyone hope youre doing well? sheila such a great set today (as always) thank you
	5:07pm Michael 98145: @Faye, the perfect blend -
	5:08pm Listening Out There: ...a touching song from the emergency room, "ICU in My Dreams"...
	5:08pm Vampire girl: Faye you are on the astral plane right.
	5:10pm Vampire girl: I hope there is no disastronomy out there. That is astral planes language for an astronomical disaster.
	5:11pm JtotheK: this Diane Lewis is fantastic. i will add to my list of 45s I hope to find in a 50 cent bin someday.
	5:14pm Rob Kopp: Hi all. Back from the neighbors (they have sold their house, so we're getting new ones).
	5:15pm Michael 98145: - great song title -
	5:16pm listener james from westwood: Palmer!
	5:17pm Cecile: this always sounded like Lawyers in Love taken sideways
	5:17pm Cecile: Or excuse me, the other way around!
	5:18pm P-90: WOW! I was thinking of this song just the other day! From like the dawn of the eighties...
	5:18pm Adrian in London: @Rob Kopp Excuse me, but I don't believe you asked for permission to leave the room
	5:19pm Bronwyn Bishop: back in college i had a music professor who consistently referred to robert plant as robert palmer
	5:19pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian: Thanks for that Waterloo sunset link last week. Enjoyed it very much. Especially all the stories why it was the favorite song of so many people.
	5:20pm Adrian in London: I read Andy 'Duran Duran' Taylor's autobiog a few years ago and he LOVED Robert Palmer. Said he was the most gentlemanly man.
	5:20pm Carmichael: Whoa, Chris Frantz and Gary Numan played on that Palmer track!
	5:20pm Adrian in London: @Rob Kopp Oh, my pleasure; I thought you'd like it.
	5:21pm Dean: Palmer worked with some amazing musicians.
	5:21pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London He's definitely underrated.
	5:21pm Dean: (So did Plant, I suppose.)
	5:22pm Vampire girl: Walking in nyc I saw a van for a Turkish newspaper with the windows broken a few days ago
	5:22pm Mike tp: Ooohhh this feels good.
	5:23pm Rob Kopp: @Adrian. Indeed I didn't ask for permission to leave the room, which I should have, but at least I announced it (at 3:46)
	5:27pm Listening Out There: Why have I missed "Internation Girl"? How can it be...
	5:29pm Anonymous Coward: Yay! SE Asian lounge psychedelia
	5:29pm Rob Kopp: @Sheila: original year of release?
	5:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: Off to the grocery store to pick up weekend provisions. Will try not to knock stuff over as I dance up & down the aisles. Nice that their wifi doesn't block WFMU! <Looking at you, Kame-Apart!>
	5:35pm \mzzm/: hii SBee almost missed yr sho but luv yr sho' jus' sayin'
	5:35pm Rob Kopp: If I am on the air of course? Of course you are!
	5:35pm \mzzm/: i wanna socks!
	5:36pm adrian in mpls: I love the bag idea! I totally start conversations with anyone I see around town wearing/toting around WFMU swag!
	5:37pm east hollywood: Tote bag! I use my 2016 "sinners crossroads" on all my coolest excursions
	5:38pm Carmichael: I have over a dozen FMU shirts, which I wear around town all the time. Not a single person in California has ever asked about them, even the "Shut Up Weirdo" shirt.
	5:38pm Anonymous Coward: Time flies when you're Boom-Booming
	5:41pm djsheilab: Glad a few of you dig the tote bag idea. I think I shall go with it.
	5:42pm Michael 98145: in this part of the left coast you see a few FMU stickers on cars
	5:42pm djsheilab: @Michael 98145 I love spotting WFMU stickers on cars! Got one on mine, but of course I do :)
	5:44pm Michael 98145: the green-and-yellow round one with NJ is popular
	5:45pm Michael 98145: - love plays a violin - ??
	5:46pm Adrian in London: I used the WFMU bike-messenger bag until it practically rotted away
	5:47pm iambasil: do you come up with the set at the spur of the moment in the studio or do you plan each week out?ive always wanted to ask the dh's that LOL
	5:48pm djsheilab: @iambasil I plan each week out. I'm obsessed with smooth segues + getting the right mood, so I can only do that by planning ahead. I love the planning part too!
	5:49pm Rob Kopp: Kinks fan Frank Lima from New York (or in the neighborhood) is sending you a Kinks sticker for on your car when you ask him for it. I've got mine! www.kindakinks.net...
	5:49pm still b/p: I never affix stickers on the vehicle, but maybe some portable presentation tryptych of FMU items to put in the window is the thing.
	5:50pm spacecowboy: my job is killing me seriously - but i got out early yeeaasshhh! boom boom ( in A sophisticated fashion)
	5:50pm Gaylord Fields: @iambasil: I'm the opposite of Sheila: My show is rather spontaneous, and I rarely know what I'm going to play from one song to the next.
	5:50pm spacecowboy: slowly reviving with music ---
	5:50pm listener james from westwood: Spotted an FMU sticker at the Livingston, NJ library yesterday. May have been an employee b/c they were there as long as I was. Good to have a kindred spirit under the same roof.
	5:53pm Paul D: Is Shut Up Weirdo off for the night?
	5:53pm Adrian in London: I've sort of avoided late-period Jeanette, obviously stupidly, because that track was great
	5:54pm northguineahills: Thanks, enjoy the long weekend Sheila and every WFMUer!
	5:54pm northguineahills: Dead Sea, not to be confused w/ the Dead C.
	5:54pm maestroso: Another lovely show, djsheilab. Thanks for the Ariana Grande; I had heard of her but never heard her music.
	5:55pm iambasil: @GaylordFields awesome love your show too,this station has some kick ass dh's with sinister playlists
	5:55pm Michael 98145: thank you again, wonderful DJ Sheila
	5:56pm JtotheK: enjoyed the show. thanks sheilaB!
	5:58pm Carmichael: Man, for a minute I thought this was Scott Walker.
	5:58pm Rob Kopp: Thanks again Sheila. Will listen to the part of the program that I missed (3:41 - 5:14) tomorrow. including the Ariane Grande interview? I'm an Ajax fan, but for Manchester I didn't mind that much United has won with 2-0.
	5:58pm Tommy in Neversink: Another fantastic show Sheila
	5:58pm listener james from westwood: Glad to have heard this week's episode, and gladder still you're going to be on the summer schedule!
	5:59pm The Contessa: Wonderful show Sheila. Saved the best for last! Thank you! Bye everyone
	5:59pm Gaylord Fields: @Sheila: And thanks for playing Jeanette among the other gems!

Listener comments!
	3:01pm karen eliot: thank you everyone!
	3:01pm Anonymous Coward: A beautiful day to Boom-Boom
	3:01pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon, Sheila and all!
	3:02pm Rob Kopp: Hi Sheila, hi all. Couldn't listen last week before Saturday. The pronouncation of Eefje's Platenmaatschappij wasn't too bad! Platen = records, maatschappij = company and we put "tje" to something when it's small. So it means Eefjes small record company.
	3:02pm TehBadDr: Hello Sheila and fellow Boom Boomers!
	3:03pm Adrian in London: Hello lovely Sheila! The Contessa and I are on our way home from an early-evening apéritif and will be listening in high fidelity in about 20 minutes!
	3:03pm Michael 98145: ( too cute - www.instagram.com... :)
	3:05pm djsheilab: Good afternoon to you all! It is a beautiful day to Boom Boom! @Anonymous Coward
	3:05pm Rob Kopp: BTW: Eefje de Visser was at my wedding party in 2005. At that time she dated a good friend of my bonus son.
	3:07pm TehBadDr: Lovely dreamy start you have going there Sheila!
	3:09pm P-90: Greetings @Sheila B !
	3:09pm djsheilab: @TehBadDr Thanks! @P-90 Greetings!
	3:09pm Adrian in London: adds Steady Holiday to increasingly mammoth Spotify library
	3:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ahoy there, Admiral Sheila! Steady as she booms!
	3:10pm djsheilab: @Rob Kopp Very cool about Eefje. My cousin introduced me to her. She's fantastic!
	3:10pm Sem Chumbo: Hello, djsheilab, and Boom Boom Roomers.
	3:11pm listener james from westwood: This Steady Holiday has a very pleasant hint of Alan Parsons Project to it.
	3:12pm Blues Mandinga: Hey!
	3:13pm Cecile: Do you have some Shirley Bassey floating around?
	3:14pm Listening Out There: I think "Hey There Lonely Boy" was one of those "answer songs," written as a reversal of sorts on "Hey There Lonely Girl"...wasn't it?
	3:15pm Cecile: It just seemed like the lyrical gender was changed, but I dunno.
	3:16pm Rob Kopp: A couple of years ago Eefje did a nice but short cover of Blondie's Call me in TV-program De Wereld Draait Door (The world keeps on turning): www.youtube.com...
	3:16pm djsheilab: @Listening Out There Ruby & the Romantics actually did the original, but Eddie Holman's version was a much bigger hit. And you've picked up on the theme of my next segment!
	3:16pm fred: Good afternoon Sheila and sophisticated listeners
	3:16pm listener james from westwood: This _is_ a nice track.
	3:16pm djsheilab: @Cecile No Shirley Bassey in my stash today.
	3:16pm Cecile: Wow, Geowulf could use a graphic designer.
	3:17pm -Ken: Hi everybody
	3:17pm Cecile: I love Eddie Holman's version. Those high notes kills me. And hi, Fred! S'cool Sheila!
	3:17pm djsheilab: Hi @Ken!
	3:17pm Listening Out There: Thank you, Sheila! Am enjoying the show thus far. Whoops, then Station Manager Ken showed up....
	3:18pm Cecile: Hi, Ken. Thank you for bringing Diane back.
	3:18pm Listening Out There: [...straightening out tie...]
	3:19pm Michael 98145: [ tucking in shirt ]
	3:20pm Cecile: [putting hand with middle finger behind back]
	3:20pm djsheilab: Yes! Everyone! Straighten up! Must be on your best behavior round these parts!
	3:22pm Michael 98145: oh my, this -
	3:23pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Good afternoon [waves hands, no offensive gestures visible]
	3:23pm Summer and Michael: Love this classic version by The Flamingos. Sigh. Thank you, lovely Sheila!
	3:24pm P-90: Maybe the number one Doo Wop record of all time. Brilliant production and arrangement.
	3:24pm djsheilab: @Summer and Michael + @P-90 Just perfection, right?! Hello @Cliff!
	3:24pm Cecile: I love doo-wop. Been listening to it as a kid in the 70s. Which made me very popular. :/
	3:25pm Cecile: P-90 - this or the Great Pretender.
	3:25pm Michael 98145: like the doggy label - img.discogs.com...
	3:25pm Rob Kopp: Originally from '34 (Dick Powell in musical Dames)
	3:26pm Cecile: It's interesting, though, that friends of mine from the East Coast cannot abide by doo-wop. They heard way too much of it. That's me with a lot of country and folk-rock music. Heard too much of it.
	3:27pm Faye: GREETINGS FROM STOCKHOLM IT'S 10:30PM
	3:27pm Anonymous Coward: The new Imelda album..
	3:27pm djsheilab: Jeff Beck on guitar.
	3:28pm Lixiviated Life: "My country, tears of thee, sweet land of liberty." - LF
	3:28pm djsheilab: Hey @Faye! Have seen your beautiful photos. Looks like you're having a great trip.
	3:28pm Anonymous Coward: Nice
	3:28pm Cecile: lucky you! can you stalk Robyn for me?
	3:28pm Rob Kopp: I only know Imelda May from the rockabilly song Johnny got a boom boom, so this is a pleasant surprise
	3:29pm listener james from westwood: Holy Christmas, what a song!
	3:30pm Cecile: that sucks. I had a few weeks of nastiness myself.
	3:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Faye. Is it sunset there yet? www.timeanddate.com...
	3:31pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: I love doo-wop too, my parents always had the radio tuned to WHEN when I was growing up
	3:31pm Michael 98145: yes, i only saw Imelda during her rockabilly phase
	3:32pm Michael 98145: oh, our DJ needs some hot tea
	3:32pm Cecile: Wheel of Fortune by the Cardinals is pretty amazing. Stay by the Zodiacs. Smoke gets in your eyes - The Platters
	3:32pm Cecile: Are they paying Clay? I only ask because he's doing 16 hours of radio.
	3:33pm Rob Kopp: Nolan Strong & The Diablos: The wind
	3:33pm Michael 98145: glad to see Diane returning
	3:33pm doctorjazz: My understanding was that the morning slot was a paid gig; JM in the AM had been paid.
	3:33pm Dean: Ruben & the Jets, "Fountain of Love," or anything else on "Cruisin' with..." [Only half kidding.]
	3:34pm Cecile: September Song - the Ravens
	3:34pm JtotheK: hi sheila, hi boom boomers.
	3:34pm Cecile: Guided Missiles - the Cuff Links
	3:35pm Adrian in London: [Back home] The Geowulf record cover looks like a 1970s knitting pattern cover or something
	3:36pm Cecile: Exactly, Adrian! It doesn't even look as good as a private press record in the Goodwill!
	3:36pm The Contessa: Hello Sheila! Hello everyone. @Ken FHP, don't faint, it's balmy in London!
	3:37pm Cecile: The "5" Royales - Dedicated to the One I love
	3:37pm Mark in Toronto: Sheila, how about "Lloyd, I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken" by Camera Obscura for Lloyd Cole & the Commotion "Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken"
	3:38pm JtotheK: i have not performed internet research to confirm ... but i wonder if Mary Wells 'You Beat Me to the Punch' and Gene Chandler 'You Threw A Lucky Punch' are somehow talking to each other. (the songs sounding identical tells me "probably".)
	3:39pm Rob Kopp: There's another one: Ginger Davis & Snaps: I'm no run around
	3:39pm foofs: I thought it was gonna be Runaround Stu.
	3:40pm frozen_peas: hahaha!
	3:40pm Faye: thanks for keeping me company this evening! traveling can be lonely. great to hear your voice <3
	3:40pm P-90: Answerpalooza!
	3:40pm JtotheK: another good one -- Ann Mason with Little Mac & The Boss Sounds - 'You Can't Love Me In the Midnight Hour'.
	3:41pm Rob Kopp: and here's another one, too! Jo Ann Campbell: I changed my mind Jack
	3:42pm fred: You can't go wrong with Nina
	3:42pm Michael 98145: fun set
	3:42pm Cecile: Of course all the "Annie" songs from Hank Ballard and others.
	3:43pm Cooh John: Sorry I'm late for the first boom. Hello djsheilab and fellow sophisticates. Listened to a WFMU archived show. I need more ears and hours.
	3:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: @TheContessa - Lucky you! The sun might come out here this weekend and it might hit 68F/20C.
	3:44pm Michael 98145: K-Tel !
	3:46pm Cecile: Wasn't Exile in Guyville a song by song rebuttal to Exile on Main Street?
	3:46pm b: This set is delightful!
	3:46pm Rob Kopp: I have to go to the neighbours to have a drink :-( Don't know when I'm back.
	3:47pm Cecile: Can you commandeer the computer, Rob?
	3:48pm Mark in Toronto: Tobakky and Sedaky was purtty funny
	3:48pm TehBadDr: Say where did I put that jar of greasy kid stuff for my hair?
	3:48pm Stanley: I see what you're doing
	3:48pm Cooh John: Hi Faye. Just listening to your last show.
	3:48pm frozen_peas: For anyone who doesn't remember this fabulous post: blog.wfmu.org...
	3:49pm Cecile: Sweet Home Alabama was an answer song to Southern Man.
	3:51pm Will from Seattle: Becky was playing some pretty sweet answer songs on her show earlier this week
	3:51pm mr_mikeK: Response set is so cool. Never heard the songs but I know what they're talking about. Smiles all around!
	3:53pm Anonymous Coward: Poor Sloopy, one of the RnR Damsels in Distress
	3:54pm Cecile: Oh! The Belles and the Pandoras - Melvin, the answer song to Gloria
	3:55pm Will from Seattle: @Cecile That one's great!
	3:56pm jnybgood: This set is really funny!
	3:56pm mr_mikeK: @frozen blog says "shameless". But I think these responses are done well
	4:00pm Cecile: hey, they're trying to break the cycle of abuse. It takes time!
	4:00pm GeorgeSimian: Awesome set. I like the Henry Phillips song, He's Talking Again, which was answered with She's Talking Again by someone. Both great!
	4:01pm Cecile: OH REALLY. She has a couple of good songs.
	4:01pm Cecile: Bang Bang is a good jam.
	4:01pm Cecile: YES
	4:03pm Cecile: If I could request Bang Bang, as it is a good jam.
	4:03pm Adrian in London: @Sheila Yes, yes, yes, to all that. I found myself facing bemused expressions at work today when I was raving about how great the new Selina Gomez track is. It's seriously good.
	4:03pm Dean: "Bang Bang" rocks, absolutely. My 11YO son is a fan of AG's. He mentioned yesterday that he'd heard she "took blame" for the tragedy.
	4:04pm Cecile: Dean, I saw some drag queens do it as the Powerpuff Girls. It was amazing. The best drag queen I know wants to be the sixth Spice Girl.
	4:04pm Dean: And "Bang Bang" includes Jessie J and Nicki Minaj. Solid tune.
	4:05pm frozen_peas: People are always gonna spout their opinions. You'd think they could set it aside for a minute in the wake of a tragedy, but alas. Tact is a rare virtue.
	4:05pm Cecile: Exactly. And the video is a great "assemble the troops" joint.
	4:05pm Dean: Ha! To heck with the fifth Beatle!
	4:06pm Dean: I am hella over twenty, but with young kids, so it averages out.
	4:06pm Cecile: I know! She even has a sequined union jack dress.
	4:06pm Cecile: I have a mental age of 11.
	4:06pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Ariana Grande is A-OK
	4:07pm Dean: Yeah, well, I have an emotional age of 3, so there!
	4:07pm Cecile: hahahaha
	4:07pm Itzall Ablurr: Already those "men" badgering Ariana Grande are making my want to vomit
	4:08pm Cecile: young gay men use the unicorn emoji all the time.
	4:08pm Cecile: I count them as guys.
	4:08pm northguineahills: I refuse to update my phone, but I do I want the unicorn emoji! (I have to get creative w/ the limited amount of emojis in my library).
	4:10pm northguineahills: Reading my parents' facebook feeds, their complaint is that Ariana Gande isn't patriotic enough (apparently they didn't take a shine to her Trump protests). I really don't understand, but I stopped trying 20 years ago.
	4:11pm Cecile: As a teen I was more into guys that dressed like girls than girl idols. I don't know what that says about me. Although I am a huge huge Patti Smith fan. I guess I'm more teenybop now.
	4:11pm Cecile: As all my Conchita Wurst fanart will attest.
	4:12pm Cecile: I have tons of Skyhooks fanart somewhere in my messy house.
	4:12pm Leonardo: You're so good you should have your own radio show Shelia.
	4:13pm Dean: My reflections on my youth are necessarily distorted by time, but I don't think I ever even thought about "dressing like" as an activity in which one engaged, except c.1968, when I was determined to look like Peter Fonda in "Easy Rider." Certainly never thought of dressing like Skyhooks, but sure was impressed by the way they dressed!
	4:13pm Cecile: I dig this. Spanish pop D&B!
	4:14pm Dean: Er, no, it was Billy, the Dennis Hopper character with the fringe.
	4:14pm Cecile: I never did either, but I probably can still draw all of them and most of their costumes! Maybe not well...
	4:14pm fred: @NGH: Damn autocorrect, maybe they meat to type patriarchic?
	4:14pm Anonymous Coward: Kewl
	4:15pm Cecile: YES
	4:15pm Anonymous Coward: Classic
	4:15pm east hollywood: Thanks for the lecture with audio exhibits! I learn from your show.
	4:16pm The Contessa: Ah, Dusty, Dusty, Dusty
	4:17pm Cecile: This is just a Rod McKuen translation of a Jacques Brel song. That's why it is good.
	4:20pm slugluv1313: @ Cecile - Patti Smith is who did it for me when i was a teenager! before her, i just could not "relate" to most female (or even male!) pop stars! although, i can totally understand Ariana Grande' s appeal - the girl can sing (& i do believe that she is vegan too)
	4:21pm Cecile: I related more to males, but most of all to Patti. It was that mix of masculine/feminine I guess.
	4:23pm Cecile: what a wonderful cover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	4:23pm will: Love this song
	4:23pm jnybgood: Agreed!
	4:23pm northguineahills: I didn't listen to music until I was 16. Beforehand, the radio was just background ambiance...
	4:23pm Dean: It appears Irene Trudel is the only regular spinner of Badi Assad tunes at the station. Would fit in nice here, too. https://www.discogs.com/Badi-Assad-Solo/release/1235512 ...among others.
	4:25pm djsheilab: @Dean I've never heard of her. Will give a listen. Thanks!
	4:26pm Dean: Sister of the more well-known Assad Bros. You're in for a treat. Or several.
	4:27pm Carmichael: Okee dokee, back from my luncheon and ready to have some serious fun!
	4:28pm the garden: Ok, this show is freaking amazing, Thank you for playing music by people other than men. The music industry is SO sexist. The engineers at studios treat ladies with such disrespect.
	4:32pm JtotheK: that minits 45 was terrific, hadn't heard it before.
	4:34pm TehBadDr: Do-wop saturation.
	4:34pm steve: im terrified of waiters and waitresses singing happy birthday
	4:40pm brus: "eget selskap" means : own company
	4:41pm Bronwyn Bishop: hey sheila and everyone!
	4:41pm djsheilab: @brus Thank you! So I guess "self-released" would make sense.
	4:41pm WO Town Wick: Please no Michael McDonald ever!
	4:41pm brus: yes
	4:43pm Adrian in London: @Bronwyn Bishop hey Bronwyn
	4:43pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, good Eurythmics cut!
	4:44pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Heeeeere comes the raaaain agaaaaain
	4:44pm Cooh John: Hey, it just started to rain here.
	4:44pm Anonymous Coward: Annie - what a voice
	4:44pm JtotheK: @LJFW - seconded, this eurythmics track jams!!!
	4:45pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London + @The Contessa + @Cool John + @Bronwyn B + @Listener James + @JtotheK + EVERYONE CHIMING IN HERE... Thanks for being here with me today!!
	4:45pm P-90: This one always beams me straight back to the mid-eighties.
	4:46pm Bronwyn Bishop: hey adrian, how are things in london?
	4:46pm Anonymous Coward: There' a possible set/show - nothing but altos
	4:46pm Carmichael: Pat Byrne played the hell out of The Minits last week.
	4:46pm Adrian in London: @Sheila xx
	4:47pm The Contessa: Thanks to you @Sheila, and… I'll stand up for Michael McDonald too
	4:47pm Adrian in London: @Bronwyn Things are balmy, Bronwyn, balmy. Although, apparently, on Sunday, it will be a case of Here Comes the Rain Again…
	4:48pm fred: Juliana Hatfield!
	4:49pm listener james from westwood: Oh, that scamp Hatfield!
	4:49pm djsheilab: Oops....I just deleted a non-curse.
	4:49pm Michael 98145: her voice brings back memories ..
	4:49pm northguineahills: It's rare to hear Juliana Hatfield outside of Irwin.
	4:50pm Adrian in London: Remember when Juliana was on, uh, kinda, My So Called Life?
	4:50pm djsheilab: @northguineahills She was a big childhood hero.
	4:51pm Faye: YAA JULIANA!
	4:51pm djsheilab: @Adrian in London Haha! Yup.
	4:51pm anaonnenmousevowhard: Remember when Juliana was on Pete & Pete?
	4:51pm Cliff (temporarily not) in Prague: Juliana Hatfield sigh
	4:52pm fred: I only saw her once, 3 years ago, and that was a Minor Alps gig
	4:53pm Cecile: Deborah Iyall - talk about a woman who got raked over by the music industry.
	4:53pm djsheilab: @Faye Next song is for you!
	4:53pm Adrian in London: @sheila That was the episode where Claire Danes's mum realised she was talking to a ghost and the punchline was "How did you DIE??" !!
